I've just had lunch after a busy morning filming.
I've shot lots of pick up shots for the opening montage in which I clarify that i'm a filmmaker. Various posters of films i've previously done etc. I've also done the titles, a way in which i've not done before, hand written. Give it a personal touch, which this film has so fits in nicely. I've written various typical 'Dazatron Films Presents' 'A Film by Darren Martin' etc around my notice board and have banned and tilted to each one before revealing a big title.
This morning has mainly been about close ups; shooting some nice close ups of the idea journal will go well as cut aways from the wide shots of me flicking through my book. I framed up on the next page before putting the page across it, I then turn the page to reveal something 'interesting'. Lovely.
Tonight, which is looming ever closer is the TRANNY SCENE. This TRANNY SCENE is going to be funny. I've got all afternoon to prepare and rehearse it. It's basically me doing an interview with the TRANNY and it goes horribly wrong, the TRANNY starts asking me questions and it all goes to pot!
My Uncle is going to be the TRANNY, although i've been told that the TRANNY CLUB in Liphook actually meets on Wednesday's!
I've also edited together a rough cut of the final film idea in the film, where I try and film the fish tank and end up on my back. I'm quite happy with it, although 3 Minutes looks a distant figure and we're looking more like a 5 Minute Short. But the amount of trouble i've had with this film, a couple of minutes isn't going to get in my way. I'm saying now, 5 Minutes Maximum. They said the rules are there to be broken! It's a Personal Film, this one is 5 Minutes and very personal so thank you and good afternoon!
Will report back later with how the TRANNY SCENE went, wish me luck!
